A wrong tag like this:
<a href="http:wiki.pl?WikiPatches/PartialUrlFix">
instead of
<a href="wiki.pl?WikiPatches/PartialUrlFix">
confuses Netscape. (somehow IE interprets this in more flexible fashion.)

sub StoreBracketUrl {
my ($url, $text) = @_;
+ $url = $1 if ($url =~ /^https?:(.*)/ && $1 !~ /^\/\//);
if ($text eq "") {
$text = &GetBracketUrlIndex($url);
}
sub UrlLink {
my ($rawname, $useImage) = @_;
my ($name, $punct);
($name, $punct) = &SplitUrlPunct($rawname);
$name = $1 if ($name =~ /^https?:(.*)/ && $1 !~ /^\/\//);
This works for me also with unbracketed partial links (like http:/path/file).
